This is the heartwarming moment that a monkey gently paddled a bamboo raft across the water to comfort another monkey that had been left alone and isolated at a zoo in China.

On December 8, 2025, in Nanjing, Jiangsu, the video captured a small monkey sitting alone in a corner far away from the rest of the monkey group.

The young monkey stayed near the water and failed to return to the main area where the others were gathered.

It appeared quiet and withdrawn as it remained separated from the group on the opposite side of the enclosure.

At that moment, another monkey climbed onto a floating bamboo raft and slowly paddled across the water toward the isolated monkey.

When it reached the lonely monkey, it stayed beside it, creating a calm and gentle scene that showed a rare display of comfort and companionship between the two animals.

The video ended with the two monkeys sitting quietly together near the water, no longer separated by distance.
